SWISS DECISION TO BAN ANIMAL TESTING ON COSMETICS

Animal rights groups and other green activists welcomed the decision of the Swiss Government to ban marketing of cosmetics that have been tested on animals abroad. The ban on cosmetics tested on animals are already banned within EU nations. Switzerland, though not in EU, has been playing a role of key trading partner of EU.

The Swiss initiative is also welcomed by manufacturers of natural organic skin care products that are not tested on animals.  Herbally Radiant products, which are free from chemicals and animal testing, and are vegan, contain USDA certified organic ingredients.

People's pressure will now be on for initiatives by countries like US, Canada, Brazil, Taiwan, Australia, Argentina where similar legislation has been pending.
